I think I enjoy the cooking more than eating, there is nothing better than to watch the smile grow after someone’s first bite. Note from Steve: I am a flow of thought writer and apologize up front if I lose you. My family is used to it.

We love the Butternut Squash and Black Bean Burritos and it was veggie night so I added some roasted cabbage and Fennel to it. Don’t knock the burrito until you try them they are satisfying and good.
Slice the Cabbage and Fennel in thick slices
Drizzle with sesame seed oil, salt and pepper mix to coat
Roasted the cabbage and fennel in a 375 Degree oven for 10-15 minutes until
served with a side of avocado that Lyn threw together

Ingredients
2 medium apples diced
2 cups rolled oats certified gluten-free if needed
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon
1 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 cups unsweetened vanilla almond milk
1 egg lightly whisked
3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
2 tablespoons unsalted butter melted and slightly cooled
1/3 cup slivered almonds
Toppings of choice
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 F and set out an 8-in x 8-in baking pan.
Place diced apples in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 2 minutes. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, stir together oats, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, and salt. Once mixed, whisk in the almond milk, egg, maple syrup, and melted butter.
Stir in the microwaved apples and slivered almonds. And then pour the mixture into the baking pan.
Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the top of the oatmeal is set and it doesn’t jiggle when you lightly shake it. Remove from the oven and allow it to cool for 10 minutes before slicing. The longer you let it sit, the less it’ll fall apart when you remove it from the pan. Cut into 6 pieces and enjoy with toppings of choice!
My son has been making be proud, for the longest time his specialty was nachos which were very good but he has grown to be quite the home cook. He recently discovered my mother’s genes may have cursed him and he suffers from gout. This used to be considered the rich mans desease so maybe its not a curse after all. I’m sure he wouold say otherwise.
Gout is a common and complex form of arthritis that can affect anyone. It’s characterized by sudden, severe attacks of pain, swelling, redness and tenderness in the joints, often the joint at the base of the big toe.
Foods considered high in purine content include: Some fish, seafood and shellfish, including anchovies, sardines, mackerel, scallops, herring, mussels, codfish, trout, and haddock. Some meats such as bacon, turkey, veal, venison, liver, beef kidney, brain, and sweetbreads. Alcoholic beverages. We bought him a copy of The Holy Gout Cookbook the other day.
Anyway here are a few things he made recently the peanut chicken I’m gong to try this one it looks good.
He also made this for another meal
I think he substituted the chicken for some shrimp that Gail had made.
